Rockclimbing in Wales

The trainee students from the FAS Outdoor Instructor training course are just back form a climbing trip to Wales. The group left on Saturday 30th April and returned home Saturday 7th May. The group based themselves in the Vagabond Hostel, in Betws y Coed which is an hour from Hollyhead. The location, weather and climbing was excellent all week. All the students clocked up a lot of lead climbs for their requirements for their Single Pitch Award assessement which is happening the start of August.
The locations where the students climbed were Pant ifan Upper Tier Tremadog, Worlds End-Llangollen, Pothole Quarry-Ruthim, Holyhead Mountain, Pinnacles-Capel Curig and Clogwyn Cyrau-Betws y Coed. The location is also quite suitable for those who wish to do any multi-pitch climbs.
